How much did Arsenal make from reaching UCL round of 16?

Arsenal topped their UCL group stage

Arsenal received an incredible £66 million bonus for making it to the round of 16. And supporters are certain about which striker they want to buy with the extra money.

A total of £3 billion is anticipated to be spent on all UEFA competitions. Additionally, £1.7 billion has been set aside for the European Super Cup and Champions League, according to Uefa.

Arsenal, who drew 1-1 with PSV Eindhoven on Tuesday to secure first place in Group B, is thought to have collected £66 million of this cash thus far. Additionally, supporters have already voiced their opinions about how the funds should be allocated.

To help his team achieve European and Premier League success in January, Mikel Arteta is in severe need of a striker.

The Villa star Luiz is allegedly the top transfer target for the North London team, and they are eager to complete a deal for him in January.

Another talent who is considering heading to the Emirates is Ivan Toney, who is scheduled to come back from his gambling ban in the new year.

Phenomenon Mbappe of Paris Saint-Germain is also expected to make a significant move in January or the summer of 2020, yet a switch to the Emirates is still quite unlikely.

Additionally, £66 million most likely wouldn’t cover the winner of the World Cup’s salary. Arsenal received £13.46 million simply for making it into the Champions League group stage.

They also received £2.4 million for each victory and £800,000 for each tie. They earned £10.4m as they won four of their six group rounds.

With their impressive performance, the Gunners have already advanced to the round of 16, and Uefa has awarded them an additional £8.2 million.
